Not sure if this thread even gets looked at any more but got another vin that suits the ve range 6G1E P 5 E 29 B L50XXXX dated 10/10 ve SSV V8 with AFM

Have found this handy to reference back to every now and then

sorry to bring up an old thread but i got one that has a letter thats not in the decodeer.

6H8VSK80HWL******

6H8: General Motors Holden (World Manufacturers Identification)

Model:
VS: VS Model

Luxury Code:
K: Executive

Body Style Code:
80: Ute

Engine Code:
H: 3.8L V6

Model Year:
L= Adelaide - Elizabeth Plant (1997)

Between the Engine Code and Year Model there is a 'W'. Does it actually mean anything or is it just a random letter they chucked in there? Im thinking maybe Gearbox type as thats the only detail not listed in this VIN decoder? Can anyone verify and maybe add it to the thread?

I think it's just a check digit and tends to be very random.
